Comments about Self-Watering Transplant Pots:
This is not an especially good capillary watering system. The APS is much better. It works to a point, but constant check must be kept on it. The water tray cannot hold much water since it is so shallow. Constant check must be kept on the capillary mat just as you would check for watering with no mat. Very small plants would not pose such a problem, but the size of the pots with this setup would require much watching as the plants got larger. 3" pots can be set on the APS with the cell tray removed.

Comments about Self-Watering Transplant Pots:
I have used the 4" (12 pot) trays before and they are great. I've now added the 3" (18 pot) tray to grow even more seedlings!
The bottom try could be a litte thicker/stronger for easier handling and longer product life. The pots are very durable.
Overall, a wonderful product I couldn't find anywhere else!

Comments about Self-Watering Transplant Pots:
I like everything about this item with the exception of the tray holding the pots. It is too weak to move it when full without spilling the water. It bends so it is difficult to carry. A stronger tray would make this product perfect.
I would also like to see more sizes of pots for seed starting plants that get fairly large prior to being able to transplant them outside.

Comments about Self-Watering Transplant Pots:
What a difference between the seedlings I transplanted from these pots and the ones in peat pots. The root base on these plants were amazing! I agree, you need to add a little glue in the corners to reinforce because it will wear out some. I'm looking to add another one or two for next year.

Comments about Self-Watering Transplant Pots:
This is where you place your seeds after you started them from seeds. The bottom of pots have holes for drainage. The package is sturdy and should hold up for years of use. They are also help when it comes to making your new plants hardy. I give mine 1/2 day of morning sun. Easy to see if the soil drys out. Great wicking action ! Would buy this again. I have 5 of these trays.
